"These cuts are RAW RON THOMPSON...years known as a MAGIC SAM recording but was clearly not...if you know Ron's sound you will know....the only problem with this album is RON DID NOT MAKE A DIME ON IT...NO ROYALTIES....so in other words this is an unauthorized BOOTLEG of Ron's recordings. How do I know this? I bought this cd and took it to him tonight (2/23/06) to get him to autograph it. He said he would not...it IS HIM on the cd...but HE GOT NOTHING FOR IT and HE DID NOT AUTHORIZE IT...and HE RECEIVED NO ROYALTIES or license fees for its release...so while its cool to get these songs by Ron...I AM AGAINST IT if Ron does not get paid for it."
